A/n: I wrote these little drabbles to study for my crimnology test, so I thought I'd up load them. Rated T just in case. Mentions violence, but nothing graphic. Enjoy

Growing up Francis lived in a strained home. His mother was chronically ill from drug use, his step father supported her drug habit by spending time in allies where unsuspecting victims were mugged, and his real father, who knew where he was? Probably jail. At an early age Francis had learned to take care of himself. He would steal to eat when he was five. By the age of ten, he had learned to steal for pleasure as well. Age twelve had brought him into a gang, the one he eventually took over. His friends taught him how to avoid the fuzz. His peers had "showed" him how to fight. Observing, Francis learned to practice on the weak. All of Francis' life was spent learning how to be a criminal; How could he be anything but?
